The villain is running a 9/8 over a significant sample.  If you think about his range here, what are we really beating?  I feel like I am playing so badly, I stuck it in knowing I was beat.  Anyway just wanted to hear what you have to say, don't worry I can take it, I know I'm a donkeyCool

The key to this hand is he is a 9/8 and he simply flatted pre. Also we raised utg +1 and he probably knows your game and your strong there so yeah your not ahead of anything especially if you never seen him raise his draws to maybe buy the turn. I would probably have called his raise and checked the turn and see what he does.
